One tael, two taels, three taels... His azure blue eyes were fixed on the white silver on the bamboo table without blinking.It's just that no matter how much you count, the old crow can't turn into a phoenix, and the copper plate can't change into silver. It's the third time to count the silver back and forth, and it's still less than 100 taels, of which 20 taels are from the damned one she robbed last time. The apprentice scholar.

So, do I really have to rob to get enough 600 taels of silver?Looking at the pitiful little money on the table, Yuan Shuyi became serious once in a while.

The saying that time is like running water is really not just a passing word. Seeing the flowers and plants she played with in Tuoba Chen's family yard slowly wither and wither, the weather is getting colder, and the days have come to the end of July before you know it. It was about to be Tuo Bachen's 15th birthday, looking at the little money in his hand, Yuan Shuyi felt that his eyebrows were on fire!

God knows how difficult it is to make money. She has worked very hard to get out early and come back late. Does it mean that she really needs to sell her appearance to save 600 taels of silver? !

Yuan Shuyi now wished she could raise her head to the sky and howl.

Money, hurry up and fly into my arms!

Tuo Bachen was very serious about drying the herbs, and then he was busy picking up the millet he felled a few days ago.Sweat trickled down from her porcelain-white nose, she raised her hand to wipe the sweat, her eyes fell on Yuan Shuyi who was still in a daze at the silver in the room.

Sister Yuan doesn't know what's going on recently, she often looks at the money alone in a daze, could it be that she has a fancy for something, but she lacks money and can't buy it?The more he thought about it, the more likely it was. Tuo Bachen looked at the millet in front of him, and decided to wait until the next meeting to make up more things. From tomorrow onwards, he would continue to fish and sell them in the market, so as to save money for him. Sister Yuan is shopping.

Just as she was thinking about it, someone slapped the nose ring of the gate of her house again. Tuo Bachen was taken aback for a moment, and quickly dropped the rake in her hand to open the door.Recently, because Yuan Shuyi's salt-making skills are getting better and better and the price of her family is fair, many villagers no longer go to the government to sell salt. People come here to buy salt, although they don't earn much every day, but after a month or two, the money she saves is much more than the money she got from fishing and selling in a few years, and Tuo Bachen will make some bamboo baskets The stool was sold, and over time, she actually saved seven or eighty taels of silver.

Note that the subject here is her, not them.That's right, just like Yuan Shuyi always secretly left some money as private money when selling herbal medicines, Tuobachen himself also left some money when he sold fish and bamboo woven things.The difference is that Yuan Shuyi is to redeem her jade pendant for Tuobachen, while Tuobachen is just in case of an emergency. .

Therefore, over the past two months, Tuo Bachen has already developed a pair of keen ears. Whenever there is any trouble, such as someone coming to buy a piece of salt, she will be able to react quickly, and she will be able to respond quickly even on crutches. Helping people pay good things for good things.Although Yuan Shuyi jokingly called him a little fortune cat, Tuo Bachen just listened with a smile, and then continued to listen with his ears up.

No way, who made her elder sister Yuan such a rich cat.

Picking up the crutches at hand, Tuo Bachen rushed towards the gate with a "da da da", I have to say that the idea of ​​laying bluestone slabs in the courtyard is very good, the most obvious effect is that no matter how anxious Tuo Bachen is walking , and will not fall again.Now she doesn't care about her crippled leg, as if she is afraid that people will leave impatiently after waiting for a quarter of an hour. She walks forward in three steps at a time. Well, when the door was knocked for the third time, Tuo Bachen opened the door at a speed that made Yuan Shuyi, who was concentrating on counting money but was suddenly interrupted by the sound of bamboo sticks, very uncomfortable .

What are you doing so fast?What if you fall again?

Fortunately, Tuo Bachen is not a three-year-old baby, so naturally he will not fall down like Yuan Shuyi thought.She walked to the door smoothly, pulled the latch, and was about to ask what was the matter, when a familiar yet unfamiliar face appeared outside the door.Before Tuobachen could react, the person standing outside the door knelt down on the ground with a "plop" and kowtowed to her continuously, crying while kowtowing. Others in the daytime were not blind, and lived with Tuobachen. The nearest neighbor just went out to see this scene, frowning and pointing at her and the people kneeling on the ground, whispering and guessing the veracity of the rumor.

"Chen'er, who is it?" Tuoba Chen just opened the door, but he didn't see anyone coming back for such a long time, and he didn't hear her speak, but there were a lot of chattering voices outside the door, Yuan Shuyi frowned Asked tentatively, but Tuo Bachen didn't answer, and Yuan Shuyi heard the cry faintly, worried in her heart, she put down the money in her hand and went out, fearing that Tuo Bachen would be entangled by some matchmaker again Can't get away.

Speaking of this, Yuan Shuyi became angry. She originally planned to find a good family for Tuo Bachen after she made money. Who knows that since the two of them worked hard to make money, they finally cleaned up the dilapidated house. After a while, those so-called bad matches came to her one after another.

Originally, those matchmakers mentioned to Tuoba Chen the daughter of the butcher Li's family and the young lady of Zhang Datie's family. Although the woman is a bit older than Tuo Bachen and looks a little shabby, other things are generally within the range of normal people.But what the hell are those widows who married one and died, blind and broken hands? !Her Chen'er looks so good-looking, is she just a cripple in the eyes of those damn matchmakers? !On the face of it, Tuoba Chen is still dressed as a man, but if he is dressed as a woman, I don't know what will happen!Therefore, being annoyed by those matchmakers whose eyes grew to the back of their heads, Yuan Shuyi now reflexively sees Tuobachen leave her for more than a moment, and will be suspicious and fearful that Tuobachen, who is not good at words, will be pulled by those matchmakers to persuade her to marry.

If it wasn't for the fact that they didn't have a dog at home, Yuan Shuyi looked at the faces of those matchmakers and wanted the dog to kill them!

It's really like they are shelters!What kind of woman wants it!Besides, didn't everyone say that she was Chen'er's bought wife? !What do those people who don't have eyesight think, and dare to be so presumptuous in front of their extraordinary beauty!She was really pissed off, Yuan Shuyi felt that the anger that had been suppressed by chewing honeysuckle every day for the past few days surged up again.

"Chen'er?" Shouting as she walked, Yuan Shuyi tightly held the whip in her hand, planning to whip it mercilessly if she saw an old woman with a wrinkled face and a smile as bright as a flower. If you don't show off your power, you really think I'm a sick cat. You have to see what kind of person you are if you rely on the old to sell the old.

"Sister Yuan..." Hearing Yuan Shuyi's shout, Tuobachen responded in a difficult way, looking at the woman who had been kneeling at his feet, crying and kowtowing to him, her head was smashed and she didn't realize it, it's not a good idea to leave Stay is not.

I don’t know if it’s the specialty of all idlers to watch the excitement, but after a while, a lot of people are standing next to Tuoba Chen’s ancestral house one after another. It’s a leisurely time not to work in the fields in broad daylight .

Before Yuan Shuyi reached the door, she saw a lot of people gathered around the house. She rolled her eyes angrily, and was about to walk over and tell Tuoba Chen, who had been facing her back all the time, to close the door and lock up those boring people. When she was outside the door, suddenly a cold light flashed across Yuan Shuyi's eyes, she was startled and had no time to make a sound, Yuan Shuyi leaped, and she landed in front of Tuobachen like a white crane. The soft whip, which was harder than the chain, was entangled with the sharp blade that was shining coldly.

"Do you want to die?" Yuan Shuyi's dark eyes flashed a smear of blue, and she asked the woman kneeling on the ground with disheveled hair in a low voice, her voice could not hide her harshness.Dare to hurt Tuo Bachen, she might really want to die!

"Woooo..." The woman kneeling on the ground didn't speak, but just sobbed, and kowtowed vigorously while crying. The stone steps of Tuobachen's house were all stained with her blood, and her hand holding the short dagger Although she was entangled by Yuan Shuyi's cowhide soft whip, she didn't let it go, she just bent down and kowtowed blindly. The moment she bent down, Yuan Shuyi clearly heard the sound of bones breaking.

This is really a weird person, and she doesn't look like she is going to do anything to Chen'er. Yuan Shuyi observed for a while before letting go of the soft leather whip in her hand strangely. The moment she let go, the woman The dagger in his hand also fell softly as expected, Yuan Shuyi turned around slowly, walked up to Tuobachen and hesitated in a low voice to Tuobachen, "... Chen'er, why do I feel that this woman seems to me Where did you see her?"

Of course I have. Not long ago she stayed at our house.

Seeing the woman in front of him kowtow like a nightmare who was not afraid of pain, Tuo Bachen still couldn't bear to step forward and help her up vigorously, regardless of her frightened refusal, he pressed down on her body that was about to kneel down, And took out the handkerchief in his arms to help her stop the bleeding.

In fact, the stiff look of that woman is too familiar at the moment, Yuan Shuyi looked at her face covered in blood and stood there blankly, letting Tuobachen help her stop the bleeding, frowning and hesitating, "This is...that scoundrel...wife ?”

Why did she come to their house again, and this time it was even worse than last time.

But at this time, as if to answer her question, someone from the crowd interrupted, "I heard that the rogue Wang lost money again in the gambling shop, it couldn't be that the things at home were sold out this time." Are you going to sell your wife? But he did buy it with money, so it would be a good deal if he sold it."

cost-effective?Do you think women are goods?

Yuan Shuyi fixedly stared at the bald man who said these words, there was no warmth in his blue eyes, as if he was looking at a dead person.
